We all know Target Field as the beautiful ball park located in downtown Minneapolis, but less commonly known, is that it was built with energy efficiency in mind. At the 5 year benchmark, the MN Twins facilities management team decided the facility needed a “tune-up” to keep it in top working order. ICS Consulting, Inc. called on SES, Inc. to perform a full-scale recommissioning study in conjunction with support from the Twins’ maintenance and management personnel, Xcel Energy, CenterPoint Energy, and NRG Energy, Inc.
